In a shower 10 cm of rain fall. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 ...
1 hectare = 10,000 m cube .
1.5 hectare = 15 , 000 m cube .
Height = 10 cm = 0.1 m.
Since, Volume = Area * Height
V = 15000 * 0.1 meter cube
V = 1500 meter cube .
Hence , option A is correct answer .
In a shower 10 cm of rain fall. The volume of water that falls on 1.5 ...
Given:
Rainfall = 10 cm
Area of ground = 1.5 hectares
To find:
Volume of water that falls on the ground
Solution:
1. Convert area from hectares to square meters
1 hectare = 10,000 square meters
So, 1.5 hectares = 1.5 x 10,000 = 15,000 square meters
2. Convert rainfall from cm to meters
1 cm = 0.01 meters
So, 10 cm = 0.1 meters
3. Calculate volume of water using the formula:
Volume = Area x Height
Volume = 15,000 sq. m x 0.1 m
Volume = 1500 cubic meters (m3)
Therefore, the volume of water that falls on 1.5 hectares of ground is 1500 m3, which is option (a).
